Quick answer

Sometimes. You can often fix this by reporting the issue directly with the platform (for example Spotify or Apple Music). CD Baby can help when platforms won’t fix it—but only in cases where they accept artist separation requests.

What’s happening and why

Your music shows on the wrong artist page when a platform (like Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, or YouTube) matched your release to the wrong artist profile. This commonly happens when different artists share the same or similar names or when artist names have different spelling, accents, or capitalization.

Once a release has been delivered, platforms control how it’s linked to an artist page. CD Baby can't directly edit that connection from your account; you or the platform must correct it.

How do I fix my music on the wrong artist page?

1. Report the issue on the platform where it’s wrong

Each platform has its own way to correct artist pages:

Spotify

• Log in to Spotify for Artists.
• Use the content mismatch or artist separation form to report that your music is on the wrong artist page.
  Spotify manages the fix itself. 

Apple Music

• Log in to Apple Music for Artists.
• Contact support and choose the “Artist Catalog Issues” topic.
• Provide your artist name, links to all albums, and the correct artist page link. 

Amazon Music

• Use the Amazon Music for Artists app or web portal to report the issue.
• If you haven’t claimed your profile, create an account first, then use “Report Issue.”

Deezer

• With a Deezer for Creators account you can request an artist separation. 

Tidal

• Submit a request through this form.

YouTube / YouTube Music

• Your music may temporarily appear under “Various Artists – Topic” if there’s no existing profile.
• Tracks usually automatically move to a correct topic channel within ~30 days.
• If they don’t, you can request a new topic channel or separation.

When can CD Baby help?

Only if the platform won’t correct the issue directly. CD Baby can file a request with certain partners when they accept artist separation requests. In those cases, you can submit a request via this form.

Before contacting support, have ready:

• UPC barcodes of impacted releases
• A link to the correct artist page
• A link to the incorrect artist page
• Names of the affected tracks

We cannot help if the platform does not accept artist separation requests (for example many download partners or platforms without separation workflows).
